Hello everyone. My fasting blood sugar was 4.7. Still on Metformin and hoping to kick it or at least reduce the dosage.

Hi y'all. My Fasting blood sugar today was 5.2. Forgot to take my Metformin last night cos I was in transit.

Yea Yea. Was kinda surprised myself too!

Fasting this morning 5.5( was a bit careless with the carbs last nite). And this morning I decided to try bread for breakfast. Took 3 slices. 1hour post meal 6.33 and 2hours post meal 5.33.

Fasting this morning 4.38. 2hours post meal 4.72. Trying to keep my carbs in check.

Thanks Mike :)
